CfdOF Preferences freezing RealThunder 2023-01-30 ?

Post by techGuy »

I built Real Thunder 2023-01-30 from source on my Fedora 37 x86_64 computer.

It is freezing when I do Edit-Preferences.

Are the RealThunder workbenches different than the mainline FreeCAD workbenches ? I noticed the RealThunder app doesn't load workbenches until they are needed. Is there anything inherently different about them ?

Thanks

Edit

Preferences is extremely slow no matter what. It takes at least 20 seconds to open and now several minutes. Why ?

Are the RealThunder preferences stored in the same location as mainline FreeCAD ? Would the old preference settings be making things slow ?

Solved. I was running xonsh instead of bash. FreeCAD appears to spawn another thread from the shell when it runs Preferences and apparently it didn't like running from xonsh but was OK running from bash.
